Cos Wuzan, was stabbed ten times by Heize at the beginning

I just found it incredibly touching.

I feel like everyone is growing!

Chapter 435 The leader of the Eternal Bliss Cult appears? ? ?

"Has Uchiha Sasuke not arrived yet?"

Genma Shiranui frowned deeply.

On the training ground, Gaara stood with a gloomy face, arms crossed, staring at the empty space in front of him.

Naruto pleaded, "Wait a little longer! Sasuke will be here soon!"

Genma Shiranui glanced at the time and said, "If Sasuke Uchiha doesn't arrive in the last five minutes, it will be considered an automatic forfeit!"

In the stands.

"Is Uchiha Sasuke not planning to participate?"

"what happened!"

"I came here specifically for him!"

"Me too!"

"He's the last Uchiha!"

"Could it be that they're too scared to come?"

"How could this be! Something must have happened!"

"I bet on him to win, he absolutely has to come!"

"Me too! I don't want to lose money!"

"..."

The audience members chattered excitedly.

Time passed by, second by second.

With five minutes almost up, Naruto couldn't help but yell angrily, "Where did Sasuke go? And Kakashi-sensei too! They're so unreliable!"

Naruto looked at Muzan beside him. How could Muzan be so calm?

Genma Shiranui frowned: "The time has come, Sasuke Uchiha is automatically..."

Genma Shiranui's words were interrupted.

"We're not too late, are we?"

Kakashi's voice sounded particularly flamboyant at that moment.

Muzan looked at the master and disciple duo, who were showing off on the training ground, with a twitching mouth, and said rudely, "Stop showing off, Sasuke is about to be eliminated."

Kakashi: "..."

He looked at Muzan.

That really ruined the atmosphere.

Kakashi looked at Genma Shiranui: "Let the match continue!"

After saying that, he climbed onto the stands and placed his large hand on Naruto and Muzan's heads.

Muzan dodged, and Naruto tried to dodge as well, but failed and was instead mercilessly punished by Kakashi.

"The match begins."

Genma Shiranui glanced at Sasuke Uchiha expressionlessly, then stepped aside.

Sasuke smiled slightly, looking confidently at Gaara in front of him.

From the stands, Kakashi smiled and asked, "How did your match go?"

Naruto scoffed, "Kakashi-sensei still remembers us? I thought you only remembered Sasuke!"

He turned his face away.

Hearing Naruto's jealous words, Kakashi smiled slightly and explained helplessly, "It's because I know Muzan doesn't need my guidance. Sakura can be guided by Muzan, and Naruto, you... also have someone to guide you."

Naruto scoffed.

"So, how did your match go?"

Kakashi looked at Naruto, his pupils shifting slightly, and said with certainty, "Naruto must have lost to Neji!"

Naruto was almost so angry at Kakashi's words that he jumped up and down: "I...I...I..."

But he couldn't find an excuse.

It is indeed a fact that he lost to Neji.

"I'm definitely going to beat him next time!"

Naruto made a firm vow.

"Mmmmmmm..."

Kakashi nodded perfunctorily, "I believe in Naruto."

Naruto: "..."

I can't believe you at all!

Kakashi glanced at Muzan beside him and stroked his chin: "Muzan... he must have won!"

Naruto's eyes widened, and he shouted defiantly, "Why do you think I lost and Muzan won?!"

Shikamaru, who was standing next to them, rubbed his ears and moved a little further away to watch the battle between Gaara and Sasuke intently.

After a month of training, Sasuke became stronger again.

Hearing Naruto's accusation, Kakashi asked helplessly, "I thought Naruto knew the reason himself."

When Naruto was in the Ninja Academy, he was at the bottom of everything except for actual combat. How could he possibly defeat Neji, whose strength had long surpassed that of a genin?

As for Muzan, to be honest, even Kakashi doesn't know the extent of Muzan's strength yet.

"I will only win any battle that involves me."

Muzan gave Kakashi a humble smile.

His words and his expression were in stark contrast.

"Excessive modesty can also be a form of arrogance!"

Kakashi looked at Muzan's expression and said.

Muzan continued to laugh: "I have never denied my arrogance."

Kakashi took a deep breath, looked away, and thinking of Sakura, continued, "Where's Sakura? Did she win or lose?"

Actually, Kakashi didn't have much hope when he asked this question.

"Won."

Naruto's answer surprised Kakashi.

Kakashi's eyes widened in surprise: "Really?"

Naruto nodded, proudly saying, "Of course! Sakura and Shino's battle was amazing! But Sakura was injured and should be in the hospital now."

Kakashi was somewhat disappointed to miss Sakura and Shino's battle.

"Let's go to the hospital to see Sakura after the match!"

Kakashi said.

Naruto nodded.

Muzan stared at Sasuke and Gaara fighting in the arena.

Gaara has now shrunk himself inside a large yellow ball.

Sasuke's Chidori pierced the sphere.

A faint, sweet, fishy smell filled the air.

Faced with the sharp spikes protruding from the surface of the sphere formed by yellow sand, Sasuke retreated to create distance.

In the blink of an eye, the battle between the two had entered a heated phase.

Gaara looks like he's hiding inside the giant ball, leveling up.

Muzan's gaze swept over the tense Kankuro and Temari.

"How to do?"

Temari lowered her voice, staring at Gaara with concern: "He seems to be losing control!"

"do not know!"

Kankuro gritted his teeth, but just then his puppet broke down, making it inconvenient for him to escape later.

"Let's play it by ear."

"I can't help it," Temari said helplessly.

This is the only option left.

Teacher Maki is nowhere to be found; he must have been taken into custody by Konoha.

Temari looked at the Kazekage in the main stands.

With Lord Kazekage here, everything should be fine.

Temari comforted herself in her heart.

Kakashi's gaze swept across the audience and immediately spotted the figures of the Anbu.

Naruto blinked. Why was he sleepy?

He rubbed his eyes; his upper eyelids were so heavy he couldn't open them.

A dull thud of flesh colliding rang out.

Naruto collapsed on the floor and fell fast asleep.

Kakashi and Muzan exchanged a glance.

Kakashi rubbed his temples and looked around. Almost all the spectators in the stands had fallen into a coma, and ninjas wearing Konoha Anbu masks were attacking Kakashi.

Kakashi stepped forward, creating distance between the Anbu ninja and Muzan and the others.

With his back to Muzan, he said, "Muzan, I'm leaving them to you."

Muzan glanced at the Konoha genin sleeping like dead pigs on the ground and was not very willing to take action.

Boom—

In the distance, a loud bang shook the entire Leaf Village.

A blood-covered ninja knelt before Hiruzen Sarutobi: "Lord Hokage, Rin, the leader of the Eternal Bliss Cult, has appeared in Konoha!"

Chapter 436 You are not destined for the Eternal Bliss Cult!

"what!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi immediately stood up, his expression changing drastically.

Rei Amamiya stepped forward and looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi: "Hokage-sama, let me go!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at Rei Amamiya with a complicated expression.

Only Rei Amamiya can go!

"Be careful."

Hiruzen Sarutobi gave his instructions.

Rei Amamiya nodded solemnly, and his figure disappeared from the spot.

Almost as soon as Rei Amamiya disappeared, the Kazekage beside Hiruzen Sarutobi stood up.
